The performed research of normative documents made it possible to quantify the technical conditions of anthropometric body measurements and to determine how the nomenclature of anthropometric measurements depends on the classification of clothing. The aim of the study was to develop a methodology for verifying anthropometric measurements of the human body, taking into account the functional characteristics of clothing. A criteria approach to the synchronization of verification means of standards identification of measurement names by measurement method and measurement classification groups (horizontal, vertical, others) was used. Validation of standard measurements for the ergonomic design of garments and harmonization of control measurement code designations in finished garments have been performed. Standard control measurements were interpreted into additional dynamic compliance measurements to take into account the level of deformation of parts during operation and to ensure freedom of movement. Technical regulation of the anthropometric information volume is confirmed by the equivalence of the optimization problems of the considered anthropometric standards in the form of the linear programming problem of the set of anthropometric measurements. The matrix of conditions for fixing anthropometric measurements in six regulatory documents was studied. It was established that the set pair 25 < 28 determines the technical conditions of quality control on the dummy of the finished product. Using basic and auxiliary reference measurements in the clothing size designation provides a flexible combination of chest, waist and hip measurements for women and chest and waist measurements for men. Consideration of the range of additional control vertical measurements is confirmed by calculating the indices of balance in the longitudinal direction of the female figure of size 164-96-104.

“…Anthropometric studies carried out in the clothing design field have shown that the adult male and female population is diverse (in terms of shape, size, proportions, postures, conformation), especially in terms of the torso. 15 The particularities of the torso must be taken into consideration when producing fitted garments, as well as the way in which the garment is meant to fit the shoulders to ensure comfort and customer satisfaction. The way in which multilayer fitted garments are designed and sized in the support area has a significant impact on its balance and appearance.…”

The objective of this study was to develop a new method of designing ergonomically shaped men’s jackets that perfectly adapt to the customer’s body shape and style (i.e. custom made jackets). The study included 10 adult subjects who prefer to wear formal jackets to work. These subjects underwent 3D scans, and the images were used to execute the study objective. The constructive balance values of men’s jacket patterns were determined by considering the characteristics of the subject’s torso and preferred style. The longitudinal contours of the torso were described by parabolic equations, which were solved with the Gauss method. The obtained value of the constructive balance (1.5 ÷ 3 cm) was used to design jackets using a particular module of Gemini CADs, which allows the mathematical relations between the positions of specific points on the contour of a men’s jacket to be expressed. The pieces are designed in Gemini’s geometric layer. The designer can establish the mathematical relations based on his/her pattern-making competencies and human body and garment evaluation results. In a 3D virtual environment (Lectra-Modaris 3D), the customer’s avatars were dressed with the same jacket model but with different bust lines and various widths on the lateral side. The bust line level was established by using the backside length (measured from the seven-vertebra until the armpit level) and an allowance value, which was established after the human body backside curvature, garment silhouette, number of layers, etc. were analysed. Two variants of the jacket model were designed: a regular- and a medium-fit at the bust level (the value of the constructive bust allowance was 7 ÷ 10 cm). The garment position on the body was evaluated by studying its relative displacement when the avatar performed regular movements (moving his upper limbs). Thirteen cases were considered significant and used to analyse the jacket hemline relative displacement (relative to its horizontal position). These cases were analysed with factorial programming and a rotatable compound central programme with two independent variables. The best shape, size and position of the jacket on the virtual body were determined for the following situation: the value of the backside allowance (longitudinal direction) was between 1.6 and 4 cm, and the width of the jacket on the lateral side was calculated with the percentage of the constructive bust allowance ranging from 49% to 51%. With these parameters, the garment appears to fit the body well.

“…11 Variations of body shape, such as size and height, on the bust and waist lead to different pattern designs. [12][13][14][15][16][17] Compared with the circumference information, the ratio of the horizontal radius vector (Hrv) to the characteristic sections can represent the body shape in the lateral direction. 18 Existing studies classify the human body into a round shape, middle size, and flat shape according to the characteristic sections, such as the bust section and waist section.…”

When a garment is given a certain amount of ease, the body shape characteristics and matching degree of air gap distribution determine the aesthetic fit of garment sculpt. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the aesthetic fit and air gap distribution of the bust and waist sections. Three factors, the ratio of the horizontal radius vector to the bust and waist sections ( HrvB, HrvW) and the location and proportion of darts ( DL, DP), have been considered in this analysis. Ten female participants with different Hrv (including HrvB and HrvW) were recruited and asked to wear 10 sample blouses with different DL and DP. Samples worn by participants are observed at different angles, and evaluated with scores by 30 experts. The air gap thickness (THA) between the garment and skin are measured by a TC2 scanner and Qualisys three-dimensional motion capture system. The results show that Hrv is the most important factor affecting the aesthetic fit, while DL and DP have significant influence on the formation of garment wrinkles. A round body shape has higher scores when wearing sample garments whose waist dart is close to the front and middle (samples L2, L3) and smaller back middle dart and front waist dart (samples P1, P2), while a flat body shape has higher scores in the opposite condition (sample L5, P5). In terms of air gap distribution, there is a significant positive correlation between HrvB and THA in the front area (132–180°). Here, HrvW was negatively correlated with THA in the back side area. The correlation coefficients are all above 0.6. The DL has a great influence on THA in the side area of the bust section and front side area of the waist section, while DP has a great influence on THA in the front and back areas of the bust section and the back side area of the waist section. In a comparative analysis, this paper proved that the smaller fluctuation of THA and the uniform ease distribution are more likely to present an aesthetic and fit dressing appearance. Although the relationship between THA and the three factors was not significant, the regularity of its distribution is accompanied by a significant change of dressing score.
